Hi Experts,
I am facing a problem in ESS leave application screen.
The error is:-

My server details are:-

Hi Prasad,
Sorry for late reply. I will try my best to help you.
First of all, you may apply the note 1058240 to solve your JAVA error. Remember, apply in R/3 server and NOT portal server. Make sure it is imported and then you MUST restart yout portal server. Then everything will be fine. Make sure your EA-HR version is suitable to apply this note.
Then for configuration, the first thing is to change the agent for workflow WS12300111 and all it's task to General Task. I think you had done this. This is good.
Then you must maintain SPRO. Normally I will use the IMG path Personnel Management -> Employee Self-Service -> Service-Specific Setting -> Working Time. In here, you will see all the configuration you can do for ESS Leave Application.
Then you go to Leave Request -> Processing Processes -> Specify Processing Processes for Types of Leave. This is the same thing you do in the IMG path Personnel Time Management - Web Applications - Leave Request - Link Absence Type & Workflow Teplets.
You must maintains this so that the leave type will display on ESS Leave Application. Please remeber that the leave type is base on PSG and if you have a lot of PSG, then you must create all of them in this configuration. Assign the workflow WS12300111 or your own workflow here if the leave type required a workflow.
Above is the important things that need to configure. You may configure others stuffs in the same path Personnel Management -> Employee Self-Service -> Service-Specific Setting -> Working Time.
